http://jgilfelt.github.io/android-actionbarstylegenerator/#name=example&compat=holo&theme=light&actionbarstyle=solid&texture=0&hairline=0&neutralpressed=1&backcolor=e4e4e4%2c100&secondarycolor=d6d6d6%2c100&tabcolor=33b5e5%2c100&tertiarycolor=f2f2f2%2c100&accentcolor=33b5e5%2c100&cabbackcolor=ffffff%2c100&cabhighlightcolor=33b5e5%2c100
